DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

[DanSchwartzgan]

Nice guys say nice things to the media. It doesn't mean they are true, it's business.

So you don't think it's true that he's a Pacer? That's an odd take. Esp since he wears the jersey at this moment in time.

I think his point is players (and owners and politicians and CEO's and Hollywood types and media members) often say things they aren't 100% sincere about.  It is 100% true he's a Pacer.  That statement says nothing about his desire to remain one.  Kyrie said something similar (actually stronger) at the beginning of his last season in Boston.  It didn't keep him from jumping ship when the season ended.  Same with Kemba his last season in Charlotte (even though everyone knew otherwise).  It is how the game is played.
